Don't know of any in the area but she could try Classic Cycles on Bainbridge Island or come South to downtown Olympia, "The Bike Stand" at 5th & Adams where I go. Don
If she's going all the way to Bainbridge, she should try B. I. Cycle Shop, it's the best around here! If she just wants to go to Bremerton/Silverdale then try Silverdale Cyclery. In Gig Harbor/Tacoma, there is Old Towne Bicycle which is awesome, but there Tacoma location is much larger with much more inventory.

There is a shop in Gig and Tacoma called Old Town Bicycles. I know some of the guys who work there... they know their stuff and are very professional. That a lot more than I can say of a couple of other shops in the area.
